What Makes Mystic Pillars: A Puzzle Game Stand Out
Mystic Pillars is an original blend of intriguing puzzles and an immersive storyline set in Ancient India, providing you with a unique gameplay experience.
Play as a mysterious traveller whose journey across the world lands you in the kingdom of Zampi. Resolve the drought plaguing the once-prosperous kingdom of Zampi by solving puzzles and destroying the magical pillars blocking the water.
[REVIEWS]
“An interesting twist on your typical puzzle game which leads to a fun experience.”
3.5/5 – Geeky Hobbies
“They say video games can’t teach you anything. They say it’s not an art form and it can’t offer you a single drop of culture. Whoever said that really needs to give Mystic Pillars a shot. Not only did I feel smart tackling its math-based puzzles like a smug scholar, but also made me want to dive into Indian culture.”
7/10 – waytoomanygames
“Mystic Pillars is a great puzzle game that not only looks pretty but the art design and lore of the game is pretty unique. The gameplay is solid as well because the puzzles will keep you busy for a good time.”

Community Insight:
Starts easy but gets tough around 20s.
Nice little game with the right amount of challenge. Please add an undo button.
It opens up with some pillars, shows you what to select and then the game starts. WTH? We just kept hitting pillars until they went down, but we have no idea WHAT we did right? Is there a tutorial somewhere.
This game seemed to load fine, but will not open, even after numerous tries. Big waste of money. 5/6/2020 After numerous communications with the company, even although we personally could not load the game, the developers went out of their way to help us. Nobody could ask for any more than the personal help the developers offered us. We would highly recommend this game to anyone.
Bought this game because we read about it in an article about GDC being cancelled. Hope we can help this dev team recover some of their losses.
Excellent game! Excellent puzzle, engaging story line and amazing graphics. Finished two cities, looking forward to the next ones.
This game grows on you with its progressively challenging levels. The graphics and music keeps you engrossed in the game. If you like mental challenges and a fun game.. Look no further! Thank you Mystic Pillars team. Ill be on lookout for any updates/ new features/ new games from you team.
The game is very addicting with a really cool storyline and graphics! Really enjoyed the hours of solving the fun puzzles. Normally we just skip through the stories of different games but this one with its interesting characters caught our attention. The several language modes too was a plus, especially japanese and hindi:) great work guys @holycowproduction.
It's got an amazing game play! The game keeps you engaged with it's interesting storyline.
Its engaging. Im done with first 2 towns. Im sure it will get harder.
Terrific game that keeps you engaged and wanting to back for more! Story is compelling, you want to hear the sweet sound of river after each level, amazing puzzles that are awesome brain fodder. Game play is great, love how smooth the transitions are, animations and design details are on point // all of which earn our 5 stars.
An engaging way to test your problem solving skills.
Mystic pillars is one of the challenging puzzle game that we have ever played. The creative story makes it even more interesting and very addictive to play the next level. We really recommend this game.
Fantastic game that interleaves logical reasoning with great story telling. The game keeps us hooked with amazing graphics, art work and challenging problems.
The creators have done a great job on story telling and keep the users engaged. Ive been hooked since its release.
